Fall Trip Announcement! June 1, 2009

We will be sending a team to serve an entire village for an extended time. The village is remote and beautiful—and the people are full of warmth and hospitality. It’s like walking onto the set of ‘National Geographic.’ There was an overwhelming response when we visited for one day in March, so we would like to concentrate our efforts on this one village for the entire trip. This team will spend time with the orphaned children and families in the village. This would be a great trip for medical professionals AND non-medical professionals. The medical team will be providing direct care, as well as health education for those who visit the clinic. There will be plenty to do for people of any age and profession! We also hope to lay the foundation in this village for our first prenatal care center. We will also visit an existing clinic that is for sale and that has asked for help– to see if this is a location that doma would like to invest in.

Trip #2: UKRAINE- October 1-11

Kiev and Donetsk

doma will send a team to babyhouses and orphanages in Ukraine to determine long term partnerships. This trip is where you will be ‘forging the way’ for our doma Ukraine connection points. Dan and I will BOTH be going on this one!!! We will have the responsibility of distributing over 1,000 baby bouncer seats and even more clothes and supplies to babyhouses and hospitals. Along with this aid, we will bring the message of doma — that is, that early intervention in the lives of orphaned and vulnerable children will lead to the prevention of future emotional, spiritual, and physical crises in their lives. This trip will be busy with infants, young children, and will be focused on establishing relationships with orphanage directors and caretakers. (I’ll even have my infant with me on this one!)

Trip #3: AFRICA- end of September, flexible dates

Uganda

This trip is for the adventurous spirit! Led by a fun young missionary who spends 3 months out of each year in Uganda. you will surely have a great time while extending the love of Christ to others in need. A local orphanage and school will host the team for several days—and you will help with projects around the school, which may include lifting, pouring, building, painting…and of course, getting to know the children and youth at the school. This would also be a great trip for young adults who are considering full time ministry to Africa. You can even extend your trip to spend more time with a few local missionaries in orphanages, elementary schools, or infant houses.
